(… Read Full Bio ↴There are at least three groups that call themselves The machines:
(1) A Russian Electronic group created by Anton Neumark, on the ataraxy records label.
(2) A Belgian melodic pop-group around Paul Despieghelaere from the beginning of the 1980's.
Late in the seventies, the Gent-based Nestormartin renames itself to The Machines and wins the second edition of HUMO's Rock-Rally in 1980. They write music in the best tradition of the Beatles and Talking Heads.
They record the singles "Money in my wallet" and "Frozen Faces", for which they are signed to Parlophone, but it's only after the third single "Don't be cruel" they really hit the jackpot. They get to record their first album in the legendary Abbey Road studios of the Beatles.
Together with "A different smell from the same perfume" by Luna Twist, "Promises" by Allez Allez, "l'Apache" by TC Matic and "Er sterft een beer in de Taiga" by De Kreuners, these are the albums which make up the best year in music Belgium has ever had.
(3) The Machines was a nickname used by Nino Nardini and Roger Roger for two Chappell Recorded Music records.
4) English Punk band circa 1977 from Southend-on-Sea. Packed it in 1978, reformed 2006. The 'True Life' EP their most well known/lauded release - got a spin on the Peel show at one point.
Everywhere
The MacHines Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The part of you that's drifting over me
And when I wake you're never there
But when I sleep you're everywhere
You're everywhere
Just tell me how I got this far
Just tell me why you're here and who you are
You're never there
And every time I sleep
You're always there
'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone
I'm not alone
I recognize the way you make me feel
It's hard to think that
You might not be real
I sense it now, the water's getting deep
I try to wash the pain away from me
Away from me
'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone
I'm not alone
I am not alone
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
And when I touch your hand
It's then I understand
The beauty that's within
It's now that we begin
You always light my way
I hope there never comes a day
No matter where I go
I always feel you so
'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone
'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I catch my breath
It's you I breathe
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone
You're in everyone I see
So tell me
Do you see me?

Turn it inside out so I can see
I want to see the real you, the part of you that affects me
The part of you that's drifting over me
The part of you that affects me, that I can't quite grasp or hold onto
And when I wake you're never there
When I'm conscious, you're not around me, I can't feel your presence
But when I sleep you're everywhere
When I sleep, I can feel your presence, your influence everywhere
You're everywhere
Your influence and presence is always around me
Just tell me how I got this far
I want to understand how you've become so important to me
Just tell me why you're here and who you are
I want to understand why you're present in my life and what your true identity is
And every time I look
Every time I try to see or find you
You're never there
I can't find your presence, you're not around me
And every time I sleep
When I'm not conscious and relaxed
You're always there
I can feel your presence and influence throughout my life, even when I'm not actively seeking you
'Cause you're everywhere to me
Your presence and influence are constantly felt by me
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
No matter what, when I'm alone, I think about you and all that you mean to me
You're everything I know
You're a huge part of my identity, an integral part of the urban landscape
That makes me believe
Your presence in my life gives me hope and meaning
I'm not alone
I'm not isolated, because you're here in my life.
I recognize the way you make me feel
I'm acknowledging the effect you have on my emotional, intellectual, and physical well-being
It's hard to think that
It's hard to believe that...
You might not be real
It's difficult to believe that you might not truly exist
I sense it now, the water's getting deep
I'm beginning to feel overwhelmed by my emotions, as though I'm in over my head
I try to wash the pain away from me
I'm doing my best to take care of myself, to process my feelings in a healthy way
'Cause you're everywhere to me
Your presence is still everywhere in my life and in my thoughts
And when I touch your hand
When we finally connect in person
It's then I understand
It's only then that I can begin to comprehend the depth of our connection
The beauty that's within
The essence of your being that makes you wonderful and unique
It's now that we begin
Our journey together is only just starting
You always light my way
You bring clarity and meaning to my life in a way that no one else can
I hope there never comes a day
I don't want to consider a day when I lose your light and your influence in my life
No matter where I go
No matter where my life takes me or where I travel physically
I always feel you so
Your influence and presence is always with me
And when I catch my breath
When I calm down and gain some perspective
It's you I breathe
I realize that you're the source of my feelings and emotions
You're in everyone I see
All the people in my life are affected by your influence and presence
So tell me
Please explain to me...
Do you see me?
Are you aware of me and our connetion?
